A man has been charged with attempted murder in a Clay County October shooting.

 

Jerick Hayden, 23, is also charged with possession of a firearm by a domestic batterer. According to the Clay County Sheriff's Department, Hayden and his father, Timothy, 52, of Clay City, went to the home of Timothy Hayden's ex-girlfriend, 54, on October 1 because she had damaged personal property at Hayden's home.

 

The incident occurred about 2 a.m. at the girlfriend's Clay City address.  An argument ensued and shots were fired.  All three were injured.

 

Jerick and Timothy Hayden were taken from the scene by another person and Timothy died of a gunshot wound at a Brazil gas station.

 

Jerick Hayden was arrested Tuesday and held in the Clay County Justice Center with no bond.
